rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author thevoid99 -

With the growing stale quality reveled in action films, it seems that action movies had lost a sense of humanity thanks in large part to the dull, machismo, muscle-bound characters that are being put into the movies. Add some expected explosions,...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lorusso - The scene is set: terrorists, hostages, police, FBI, skyscrapers, SWAT teams, nosey reporters, and our hero, a normal everyday man, stuck in the middle of this. Sounds like the type of movie that is made every five minutes in Hollywood. Some of those...
